Adults and older teens - join us for Lafayette Learns, where we will observe Colorado's 150th year as a state, with a look back at how and what people ate in 1876.
Join Dr. Rachael Storm from History Colorado as she explores the foods, preparation methods, servingware, and customs around campfires, hornos, manos and metates, and cast iron. Learn about the seasonality of foods and transitory nature of the hearth as people moved into, out of, and around what became the state of Colorado in 1876.
